Court delivers final verdict
In his judgement, Magistrate Segun Stephen Rotiba dissolved the marriage on the grounds that the parties had lost interest in the union.
Magistrate Rotiba said that with regard to relief two in the petition, the Court had already given a well-considered ruling that the children whose custody was sought have already attained adulthood.
Meanwhile, Prophet Obayan is the founder of Divine Prophetic Solutions Prayers Ministry located off Arowojobe Street, Ladipo, Lagos.
He had dragged his estranged wife to the court in Akure, to challenge the “snatching of his four children by a member of his church”, and sought the return of the paternity of the children.
However, Prophet Obayan and his wife are no longer together following the court's ruling on Wednesday.
